Here is a rare opportunity to own a never rusted or never accident beautiful early 911. These cars are hard to find in any condition much less a California rust free example with all original panels rockers floor and trunk floor! great gaps super straight. This car was stripped to bare metal and the metal was cleaned and many photographs taken at that stage. It was metal etched primed then metal finished . This car has barely any filler anywhere! It was urethane primed blocked and painted in the wonderful original Irish green and clearcoated. It was color sanded to a flat mirror finish that is deep and pure gloss.
It has new seats headliner and dash. The wood is untouched and the best looking dash ever put in a 911 .
The brakes were rebuilt and work excellent. The original dated 1965 trans shifts great no noises . New seals all around some pieces new rechrome The chrome around side windows is original but not bad.
The engine is a 1970 2.2 with zeniths. No leaks! The oil pressure is a steady 60 pounds and the compression is a around 150 psi. It does smoke a little and the carbs do run smooth sometimes . It is could use a set of Webers and toss the zeniths. I have a line on a 66 case and my intention was to build a 2.7 aluminum case engine but other priorities have got in the way of that.
These early hand made 911's will continue to rise in value with out a doubt. The 65 is identical in almost every detail but they were mostly European delivery . The 66 was the one you could find at the dealer if you could find one at all. I am always more fond of the coupe the Targa has only 60 percent torsional stiffness of the coupe . It took the factory till the 80's to come up with the right combination of reinforcements to build the cabriolet which we all love.
I can send additional pictures of specific areas if needed.
I reserve the right to end the auction early if a deal is made before auction ends.
Thankyou for looking!

Porsche 911 Carrera 4S named Motor Trend Best Driver's Car [w/video]
Thu, 22 Aug 2013Motor Trend has named the 2013 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S its best driver's car for 2013. The annual
competition for the title included some of the best performance cars that have gone on sale in the past year. The new C4S follows the 2012 Best Driver's Car award winner, a two-wheel-drive Carrera S.
Determining the winner of the coveted title isn't easy. Each vehicle is pushed through Motor Trend's normal battery of instrumented tests. Editors then spend time with each car over a 500-mile tour of mixed conditions before a final batch of testing at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca, with pro racer Randy Pobst at the wheel.
Jaguar F-Type coupe to cost more than convertible?
Tue, 30 Jul 2013Jaguar may price the much-rumored F-Type Coupe above the F-Type Convertible, if a report from Australia's Drive is to be believed. What makes Jag think that such a pricing strategy would work? Porsche. Take a look at the German manufacturer's consumer site, and you'll notice that the Boxster is less expensive than the Cayman, despite being essentially the same car.
It's a fair point, and a price premium does a good job of emphasizing the sporting chops of the coupe over the open-air experience that normally entitles convertibles to higher MSRPs. It's unclear just how closely Jaguar will follow Porsche's example, though.
Both the Cayman and Cayman S boast an extra ten horsepower over a Boxster or Boxster S, and while this bump in grunt is negligible in every situation but an argument over which is "best," it isn't something to be ignored in the F-Type, particularly as cranking more power out of its supercharged engines should be a rather simple matter.
2015 Porsche Macan Turbo
Mon, 06 Jan 2014The misinformation first started back in May of 2007 - more than six years ago - when word came that Porsche was developing a compact utility vehicle to fill out its product line. Rumors swirled that the German automaker's future "Roxster" would be based on the then-upcoming Audi Q5. By September of 2010, the name had changed to "Cajun," but the vehicle was still expected to be "based heavily on the Audi Q5," said reports in the months that followed. One year later, the first test mules were spotted, the mechanics hidden beneath barely disguised Audi sheetmetal, which did nothing to give the upcoming model its own identity. And even after Porsche announced "Macan" as the vehicle's production name in early 2012, articles stated that it would "arrive on the same chassis as the Audi Q5, though with suspension, brake and engine tweaks suitable to the Porsche range."
It's no wonder that most still consider the all-new Porsche Macan nothing more than a heavily massaged Q5.
To help lift some of the mystery surrounding its latest release, Porsche hosted us in Germany for an in-depth look at its new crossover (while Europeans call it a "sport utility," its car platform allows us to call it a proper CUV). The technology workshop offered us insight to the design and mechanical execution, and it concluded with a short test ride. The trip was both enlightening and educational - and it left us with a whole new perspective on the Macan.
